Hotel Review of the Best
Western Listel Whistler Hotel
Jun 4, 2010
You can't really fault this hotel in terms of its location, centrally
located in the Village and within 3 minutes walk to the Ski
lifts/gondolas. You can't really expect much from a 3 star hotel (with 4
star and above prices - its expensive at Whistler), room was reasonably
sized (twin beds which are queen sized). Basic and certainly not
luxurious. If you are expecting a nice view from the room overlooking
the mountains or the village, you can just ........ FORGET ABOUT IT. My
room was on the ground floor and it overlooks the road/drop off area. If
you are thinking of a romantic evening in the room with your partner,
you better draw your curtains :-( cos you are not only getting an awful
view, you'll not get any privacy at all!
In terms of cleanliness - its acceptable, furnishing was a bit drab but
decently maintained. Checking in was ok. Service was ok (didn't really
make any requests out of the ordinary - nothing extraordinary or even
exciting happened). In short, its a hotel without a "wow" factor and
certainly not memorable - basically, a no frills hotel.

The hotel is in a courtyard surrounded by three other properties right
off Whistler Village square. It’s a great location, except that
late-night revellers passed by each night when the bars closed on their
way home. Each night we were awakened at 2 by loud, drunken voices. They
did not pass by quickly, either. One night there was a lengthy drunken
snow ball fight. And each morning the stairways leading up to the
village square smelled like a subway. This is not the Listel’s problem:
it was actually a sweet hotel with a great staff. But it certainly had
an impact on our overall satisfaction with Whistler.

This hotel is within a short walk to the ski lifts, gondolas, shops and
restaurants. We parked the car below the hotel ( charged per night) and
never used it until we checked out. Everything was so close to the
hotel. Since this was the Christmas season, everything was decorated and
all lit up. Enjoyed all of the skiing, eating and the hotel. My daughter
can hardly wait to go back. Apr 14, 2010

Good location, friendly staff, clean rooms BUT the sheets did not fit the bed
and we ended up sleeping directly on the mattress...EWWW!!!! and first thing in
the morning the cleaning staff made so much noise that it was very disturbing.
Being a travel agent myself I would not recommend this hotel to anyone and even
after sending two emails I have had no replys

we stayed 2 nights in this hotel. Thought the room was spacious, clean and
functional. We really appreciated the free internet access in the lobby. I would
stay there again if passing by Whistler.

Very big room. Nice bathroom. Very close to the Village and the gondolas (5
minutes walking). Haven't try the restaurant for dinner (too expensive) just for
the breakfast and it was not very good.

I came from Hong Kong to visit my parents and they help me to join a 2-days
local tour to Whistler on 24-Dec. The hotel location is great as it is closed to
most places we need. The service desk is helpful as they remind us to have a
booking for dinner when we check in -- as the day is Xmas eve. They also suggest
a nice steak house (he even mentioned that it is not the best at Whistler, but
still a good one) just next to our hotel as we have a 7-years old kid. Although
the earliest time we can find is 8:30pm, it is just great as we can walk around
the village and have a short rest before for the guest dinner.
There is a Acer laptop at the lobby with a printer attached -- which is great
for me as I forgot to bring my netbook.
Anyway, this is another nice Best Western hotel I visit

Good: short walk to the Whistler Gondola, restaurants and shopping; underground
covered parking, storage of skis on site, free newspaper, free wifi.
Bad: parking fee, carpet is worn, slow wifi, maid knocked on the door at 8:30am
to clean the room.
Generally, the restaurants in this area are pricey but you can save some bucks
by either getting your meals from the local grocery store which is in the middle
of the village or trying some of the more value oriented restaurants such as The
Spaghetti Factory or The White Spot.
